DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[Detailed Description of the Invention]
[0001]

[Field of the Invention]This invention relates to the training apparatus using the lift of float (float)
floated on the water surface in detail about a training apparatus.

[0002]With "training" here, muscular training for body building or lean figure, The aerobics aiming
at the warm-up exercises in front of the rehabilitation (functional recovery movement,
hyperergasia movement) after the illness for a physically handicapped person or an old person or
an injury, underwater play, and a sport, a stretch and the arrangement gymnastics after a sport, an
internal-organs function, breather hyperergasia, etc. are said.
[0003]

[Description of the Prior Art]As a conventional training apparatus, although the graphic display was
omitted, there was equipment using the following weight which consists of metal, for example.
[0004]This equipment is installed on a floor and metal weight is supported by the device main
frame so that up-and-down directional movement is possible. A user grasps by hand the handle
part which it comes to connect with weight and an indirect target, and pulls this handle part.
Thereby, weight can be pulled up and spends for load to an arm with a handle part at this time.
[0005]If the power of a hand with a handle part is extracted, or if a hand with a handle part is
lifted, weight will fall with prudence and will return to the original position. By repeating such
operation, the user can train an arm.
[0006]

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, the conventional training apparatus had the
following faults. That is, since the device main frame had to hold firmly the weight which consists
of metal, the thick and heavy main part needed to constitute it. Therefore, when [ at which the
weight of the whole equipment becomes quite heavy, for example, this is assembled including
weight ] making it move at the time, it was forced very difficult work.

[0007]If it was while using the above-mentioned training apparatus, the monotonous and cold
machine sound by metal and metal rubbing resounded, the user sensed mental stress by this, and
it also became the cause of making training volition declining.

[0008][0008]. [this invention] — do this invention in view of the above-mentioned actual condition
— it comes out. The purpose provides the training apparatus with an active and bright image
which may accelerate ****** and a user's training volition easily, also when [ at which the purpose
reduces the weight of the whole equipment, for example, this is assembled ] making it move at the
time.

[0009]

[Means for solving problem]Float with which the training apparatus of this invention is floated on a
pool, and final controlling elements, such as a handle part which was able to provide the straight-
line or curve top enabling free reciprocation moving, When it has a power transmission part which
connects said float and said final controlling element of each other so that power transfer is
possible, and a user applies power to said final controlling element and makes the final controlling
element concerned move forwardly, Some or the whole of said float in the state where it floated
on the pool resists lift, and sinks underwater, and while said float surfaces by loosening the power
to said final controlling element according to lift, this is interlocked with and it makes as [ return /
final controlling element / to the original position / said final controlling element carries out double
action, and ].

JP,09-173499A [DETAILED DESCRIPTION]

2/12 ^— V

[Mode for carrying out the invention]AII things with the character which lift tends to commit the
above "float" by [, such as synthetic resin foam, such as a product made of rubber, an air bag
made of a synthetic resin or a hollow vessel body, and foaming styrene, a piece of wood, etc. which
filled up the inside with gases (air, nitrogen, etc.), ] sinking, and is going to surface are said.
[001 1]As form of float, a globular shape, cylindrical shape, tabular, the shape of an egg shape,
conical shape, The shape of a polygonal-pyramid object, such as reverse conical shape,
rectangular parallelepiped shape, a triangular pyramid, and a pyramid, the shape of a gourd type.
What imitated popular characters, such as what a multiple column, the shape of a pillar by which
bulged in the method of outside in the position, or reentrant formation was carried out, etc. were
mentioned, and imitated goods, such as a ship and a car, a thing which imitated the animal, and
comics, may be used.

[0012]If float is a thing of the pillar (a path is an eternal pillar in a sliding direction) prolonged in a
sliding direction, are only that the ability which requires which portion in order that this float may
be sunk, since it is [ the capacity per unit height of this float and volume ] very the same
increases in a fixed quantity, but. Since it increases so that the capacity per unit height of this
float and volume go upwards if it is when float is made into reverse conical shape, for example, the
ability required in order to sink this float does not go to the reason for increasing in a fixed
quantity, but increases rounded to it the 2nd order. Therefore, when float of reverse conical shape
is used, such bigger load is applied compared with the case where the above mentioned pillar-
shaped float thing is used that it goes in the second half. It is also possible to devise using such a
principle, so that it can train efficiently.

[0013]That is, in the place of the operation which can be performed comparatively easily on the
structure of the body in a series of a user's until it sinks float thoroughly operations, since it is
easy to oppose big load, capacity of float corresponding to the portion and volume can be
enlarged. On the contrary, what is necessary is just to make small capacity of float corresponding
to the portion, and volume in the place of the operation which is comparatively hard to move, since
it may be unable to oppose by small load, either.

[0014]Balloon type float with automatic buoyancy control equipment can also be used. That is,
float which expansion (expansion) and reduction are possible and can moreover perform the air
supply from the outside and the exhaust air to the exterior free can also be used. By using this
float, float buoyancy control, i.e., regulation of the charge condition of load, can be performed,
without carrying out exchange of float, and attachment and removal.

[GDI 5] [Function] — power is applied to the final controlling element provided enabling free
reciprocation moving, and this final controlling element is made to move forwardly in the training
apparatus of the present invention That is, or grasp a final controlling element, for example, a
handle part, by hand, or it hangs a leg on a pedal part, it puts in power and it pushes, lengthens and
raises this handle part or a pedal part, it lowers. This power gets across to float via a power
transmission part, and this float resists lift and sinks underwater. Load takes for the arm which
grasps this handle part, or the leg hung on the pedal part at this time.

[0016]If the quantity of the power applied to said final controlling element is reduced and it is
made below the lift of float, float surfaces according to its lift, this is interlocked with, double
action of the final controlling element will be carried out, and it will return to the original position.
[0017]If it is in the training apparatus of this invention, as mentioned above, since it generates
when float resists lift and sinks, the thick and heavy main part which does not need to use the
weight which consists of metal like before, and supports this is not required for the load to the
body, either. For this reason, also when [ which the weight of the whole equipment can be reduced,
for example, assembles this ] making it move at the time, it can carry out easily.
[0018]What is necessary is to increase the number of float or just to exchange for float with larger
volume and capacity to enlarge load, for example, since the degree of load to the body is
proportional to the lift of float and this lift is proportional to the volume of float, and capacity. On
the contrary, what is necessary is to reduce the number of float or just to exchange for smaller
float to make load small. Since there is none of so much weight in the float itself if it is in the
equipment of this invention, attachment of the above float, and removal and exchange can be
performed very easily.

[0019]If it is while using the above-mentioned training apparatus, the monotonous and cold
machine sound which also became the cause of making training volition declining does not resound,
and a user does not sense the mental stress by this. There is fun of ups and downs of float which
was described above in the training apparatus of this invention, not to mention it, and a user is
made to sense pleasure and ballottement. The training apparatus of this invention has an active

and bright image from a wave sound and a spray in case float bobs.

[0020]It differs from swimming training, hair does not get wet while in use, and it is not forced a
swimming cap. Since a face does not get wet, in the case of especially a woman, there are also no
worries about messy makeup.

[0021 ]In using the training apparatus of this invention, it is not asked whether the user can swim.

[0029]

[Working example]

A training apparatus (T) in which one working example of working-example 1 (a double leg
extension, multi-hips ) this invention is shown is explained based on drawing 1 and drawing 2 .
[0030]In a figure, a mark (13) is a device main frame of hollow rectangular parallelepiped shape. A
rear end part (if shown in a figure, it is a left edge part) of this device main frame (13) is equipped
with a chair for users (12). In both sides, a grip hand (14) which a user grasps is provided in seat of
this chair (1 2).

[0031]A supporting spindle (18) is attached to a cross direction center of a front end part in seat
of a chair (12). this supporting spindle (18) — before ** fi'om an attaching position with a chair
(1 2) — it extends towards the bottom of slant a little, and centering on said attaching position
(fulcrum (P)), a predetermined angle is provided in a sliding direction so that both-way rotation
(rocking) is possible. A cylindrical pedal part (16) which a user who sat on a chair (12) can carry on
a shell of both his legs is attached at a tip of this supporting spindle (18), Reciprocation moving of
said pedal part (16) becomes free by rotation (rocking) of a supporting spindle (18) in a sliding
direction (it is a sliding direction about a centering on said fulcrum (P) circle-correctly top).
[0032]The pulley is installed in the front end part and rear end part in an inside of the above
mentioned device main frame (13), respectively (use the one distant from a chair (12) as the 1st
pulley (22) hereafter, and let the direction near a chair (12) be the 2nd pulley (24)).
[0033]The coupling frame (26) which consists of ropes is provided in the above mentioned pedal
part (16). From said pedal part (16), turn this coupling frame (26) caudad and it is prolonged. It
goes into the inside of a device main frame (13) through the loading slot (33) established in the
upper surface of the device main frame (13), It is halfway hung on the 2nd pulley (24) and the 1st
pulley (22) one by one, it appears in the outside of a device main frame (13) via the after insertion
port (35), and spherical float (10) is attached in the free end section.

[0034]The training apparatus (T) of the above-mentioned composition is installed in the floor pars
basilaris ossis occipitalis (20) of a pool. The length of this coupling frame (26) is adjusted so that
float (10) may float on the water surface, after coupling frame (26) has stretched at this time. The
height of a chair (12) is adjusted so that it may not become the hindrance of breathing of a user. It
is preferred to carry out height control so that the position of a user's heart may come out above
the water surface.

[0035]A user sits on it, lengthening the back on a chair (12), and has a grip hand (14). And where
upper (the root of digiti pedis is also included) pedal part (16) of the shell of its leg (both legs) is
carried, this pedal part (16) is pulled up. Float (10) is pulled by this, lift is resisted, and it sinks
underwater. Load will take for the leg (quadriceps (rectus femoris, the musculus vastus lateralis,
musculus vastus intermedius, musculus vastus medialis), sartorius, kneecap muscle) which pulled
up the pedal part (16) at this time.

[0036]A leg is taken down after raising a pedal part (16) even to a predetermined height. Thereby,
the tension from a pedal part (16) is canceled and it rises to surface according to its lift, and
simultaneously with this, a pedal part (16) is pulled by float (10) which surfaces, and descends, and
float (10) returns to the original position. Taking up and down of a leg which was described above
is repeated, and is performed.

[0037]In this example, the 1st pulley (22), the 2nd pulley (24), and coupling frame (26) constitute
the power transmission part in Claims.

[0038]As shown in drawing 16 , the change of design of the above-mentioned training apparatus (T)
can also be carried out. That is, the chair for users (12) is provided in the backboard (13b) in the
device main frame (13) which makes the shape of a side L character. A supporting spindle (18) is
provided in the both sides part of a chair (12), respectively, enabling free rotation, and a pedal part

(16) is provided at tlie tip of eacli supporting spindle (18). Thereby, a pedal part (16) on either side
can be moved individually. The pulley (a front side (front slanting lower part of a chair) is the 1st
pulley (22), and the backside (lower part of a chair) is the 2nd pulley (24)) of the order lot is
formed in the inside of a device main frame (13) in both sides, respectively.
[0039]The coupling frame (26) of the form of a rope is attached in each pedal part (16). The
coupling frame (26) prolonged from a right-hand side pedal part (16), It goes into the inside of a
device main frame (13) from the loading slot (33) which carries out an opening [ near the 2nd
pulley (24) ], It progresses to the method of back to front [ which was hung on the 2nd pulley
(24) ], after being hung on the 1st pulley (22), it appears from the insertion port (35) which carries
out an opening [ near this 1st pulley (22) ] in the outside of a device main frame (13), and right-
hand side float (10) is attached in the free end section.

[0040]The coupling frame (26) prolonged from a left-hand side pedal part (16) is the same, and it
goes into the inside of a device main frame (13) from the loading slot (33) which carries out an
opening [ near the 2nd pulley (24) ], It progresses to the method of back to front [ which was hung
on the 2nd pulley (24) ], after being hung on the 1st pulley (22), it appears from the insertion port
(35) which carries out an opening [ near this 1st pulley (22) ] in the outside of a device main frame
(13), and left-hand side float (10) is attached in the free end section.

[0041] As shown in drawing 17 . the change of design of the above-mentioned training apparatus (T)
can also be carried out (multi-hips). That is, the fixed axis (31) prolonged toward the front from the
front face of this protrudes on the backboard (1 3b) in the device main frame (1 3) which makes the
shape of an L character. The supporting spindle (18) is attached to this fixed axis (31), enabling
free rotation. Namely, the upper bed of a supporting spindle (18) is supported pivotably by the
front end part (a free end section, a point) of a fixed axis (31), and both-way rotation (rocking) of a
predetermined angle is free for a supporting spindle (18) to a cross direction focusing on a
pivotable support position (fulcrum (P)) with a fixed axis (31).

[0042]The cylindrical pedal part (16) which a user is a leg, with can be operated is attached to the
lower end part of a supporting spindle (18). Thereby, the reciprocation moving of a pedal part (16)
becomes free about a centering on said fulcrum P circle top with rotation of a supporting spindle
(18) at a cross direction.

[0043]The 1st pulley storage part (13-1 a) is established in the front end part of the device main
frame (13), and the 2nd pulley storage part (13-2a) is established in the flection in a device main
frame (13). The pulley is attached to the inside of each pulley storage part.

[0044]The coupling frame which makes two forms of a rope is attached to the pedal part (16). One
(26-1) of them is prolonged towards the 1st pulley storage part (13-1 a), After going into the inside
of this storage part (13-1 a) and being hung on a pulley from a loading slot (33), it appears in the
outside of this storage part (13-1 a) via an insertion port (35), and float (10) is attached in the free
end section.

[0045]One [ remaining ] (26-2) is prolonged towards the 2nd pulley storage part (13-2a), After
going into the inside of this storage part (13-2a) and being hung on a pulley from a loading slot
(33), turn the inside of a device main frame (13) ahead, and it progresses (turning to the 1st pulley
storage part (13-1 a)), After passing along the inside of this storage part, it appears in the outside
of this storage part (13-1a) via another insertion port (35), and another float (10) is attached in the
free end section.

part of a pool, while a user stands on a device main frame (13), for example, making float (10) into
right-hand side, the pedal part (16) of reliance is in the lateral surface of a left leg, and this left leg
is flung up to the method of the outside. Thereby, a pedal part (16) moves back (direction with a
backboard). When a pedal part (16) moves in the direction of a backboard, one of two coupling
frames (26-1) is pulled, and float (10) connected with this sinks underwater.

[0048]If the direction to which a pedal part (16) is moved is made reverse (i.e., if a pedal part (16)
is moved ahead (direction with float)), float (10) other than float (10) which could pull the coupling
frame (26-2) of another side, and was connected with this and which sank in the above-mentioned
underwater one will sink underwater.

[0049]The training apparatus (T) which is an working example besides the working example 2 (arm
extension ) is explained based on drawing 3 and drawing 4 .

[0053]If it is in the above-mentioned equipment (T) installed in the pool bottom floor part (20), a

handle part (16) is in the state where it floated on the water surface with float (10).

[0054]A user sits on it, lengthening the back on a chair (12), and hooks a leg on a footstep bar

(28). And a handle part (16) is grasped by both hands or one hand, and a handle part (16) is caudad

depressed using the supporting spindle (18) being established rotatable. Thereby, float (10) resists

lift and sinks underwater. Load takes for the arm (triceps muscle of the arm (regions of back of an

elbow and the upper arm)) which depressed the handle part (16) at this time.

[0055]Lifting a hand from said handle part (16), or by loosening the power to depress, it rises to

surface according to its lift, a handle part (16) goes up simultaneously with this, and float (10)

returns to the original position. Such operation is repeated and is performed.

[0056]In this example, the horizontal axis for supporting spindle (18) float wearing (19) constitutes
the power transmission part in Claims.

[0057]The training apparatus (T) which is an working example besides the working example 3
(straight arm rowing ) is explained based on drawing 5 and drawing 6 .

[0058]In a figure, a mark (12) is a chair for users. The control lever (32) prolonged in a sliding
direction is allotted to the right direction of a chair (12), and left each. In that lower end part, this
control lever (32) is provided with the supporting shaft (34) respectively prolonged toward an inner
direction, and is inserted in the pivotal support hole (36) established in the flank of the leg of the
above-mentioned chair (12). Thereby, a control lever (32) on either side makes a fulcrum (P) the
respectively above-mentioned pivotal support hole (36), and both-way rotation of a predetermined
angle is free for it.

[0059]If he is a right hand if the user who sat on said chair (12) is in a right-hand side control
lever, and he is in a left-hand side control lever, the handle part (16) which can be grasped with
the left hand is provided in the upper part of the control lever (32), respectively. Thereby, the
predetermined angle round trip rotation (rocking) of a handle part (16) is attained in a centering on
said fulcrum (P) circle top with rotation of a control lever (32) at a cross direction.
[0060]A mark (38) is a follower lever, before ** [ from / near the supporting shaft / in / in this
follower lever (38) / a control lever (32) on either side / (34) ] — it has extended towards the
slant top, respectively a little.

[0061]A mark (19) is a cylindrical horizontal axis for float, and a mark (26) is the coupling frame of
the right and left which consist of ropes. Respectively, one end is attached to the point (upper bed
part) of a follower lever (38), and, as for coupling frame (26), the other end is attached to the
longitudinal direction center section of the horizontal axis for float (19). Float (10) which consists
of some float constructs (10a) is held respectively at the horizontal axis for float of these right
and left (19), enabling free attachment and detachment. That is, a float construct (10a) makes
doughnut shape respectively, and the horizontal axis for float (19) is inserted in the hole which

attaching position of an on either side follower lever (38) with the coupling frame (26) in a follower
lever (38) is depressed in a deeper position. In connection with this, float (10) on either side is
pulled by coupling frame (26), resists lift, and sinks underwater, and load takes for the arm (a large
and a pectoralis minor, a triceps muscle of the arm (upper arm part), trapezius, the public back
(back), a teres muscle, and a deltoid muscle (shoulder)) etc. which projected the handle part (16)
at this time.

[0065]Lifting a hand from a handle part (16), or by loosening the power to project, float (10) on
either side surfaces according to its lift, a follower lever (38) on either side goes up simultaneously
with this, and a handle part (16) on either side returns to the original position. It trains by repeating
such operation, operation (projection) of a handle part (16) — right and left — it may carry out
simultaneously — it may carry out and may carry out alternately with right and left.
[0066]The means of attachment of a control lever (32) can be changed, the direction to which the
supporting shaft (34) specifically provided in the lower end part of the control lever (32) extends
can be changed, and a handle part (16) can also be provided in the longitudinal direction instead of
a cross direction so that reciprocation moving is possible.

(26) is attached to the left edge part of a handle part (16). As for the end side of another side of
the coupling frame (26) imposed on the pulley (22), after appearing in the outside of a base
material (40) through the 2nd insertion hole (44) of a base material (40), the free end section is
attached to float (10).

[0085]The equipment (T) of the above-mentioned composition is installed on a pool floor pars
basilaris ossis occipitalis (20). The upper part of the base material (40) of the equipment (T) in this
state has come out fi^om the water surface, and float (10) is floating on the water surface in the
state where it was held at said base material (40). The handle part (16) appears on the base
material (40) on either side, after it turned caudad and having been pulled by float (10).
[0086]A user uses a front [ handle part / (16) ], and he stands on a device main frame (13),
straightening the back, and a breadth-ol^its-shoulders grade extends both hands, and he grasps a
handle part (16). And a handle part (16) is raised. Float (10) pulled by the handle part (16) via
coupling frame (26) shifts under the water surface, resisting lift and being guided to a base material
(40). Load will take for the arm (a deltoid muscle, a triceps muscle of the arm) etc. which raised
the handle part (16) at this time.

[0087]By taking down a handle part (16), float (10) surfaces according to lift and this handle **
(16) and float (10) return to the original position. It trains by repeating taking up and down of such
a handle part (1 6).

[0088]The power transmission part in Claims consists of coupling frame (26) and a pulley (22) in
this example.

[0089]The training apparatus (T) which is an working example besides the working example 5 (front
pulldown, back pulldown) is explained based on drawing 1 2 and drawing 13 .

[0090]In a figure, a mark (13) is a device main frame which makes tabular. This device main frame
(13) is provided with the hollow hemisphere-like pulley storage part (13a). The 1st pulley (22) is
attached to the inside of this pulley storage part (13a).

[0091]On the device main frame (13), the pillar-shaped base material (40) prolonged toward the
upper part in the back of a chair (12) and this chair (12) is formed.

[0092]The lobe (40a) prolonged toward the front is installed in the upper part of a base material
(40), and the 2nd pulley (24) is formed in the position corresponding right above said chair (12) in
this lobe (40a).

[0093]The coupling frame (26) of the form of a rope is imposed on the 1 st pulley (22). As for the
one end part side of the coupling frame (26) imposed on the 1st pulley (22), it appears in the
outside of a pulley storage part (13a) via an insertion port (35), and float (10) is attached to the
free end section. The other end side comes out from a pulley storage part (13a) via a loading slot
(33), after being hung on the 2nd pulley (24) after that, direction is changed caudad, and the handle
part (16) which makes the rod form prolonged in the longitudinal direction is attached to the free
end section.

[0094]The equipment (T) of the above-mentioned composition is installed in a pool floor pars
basilaris ossis occipitalis (20). At this time, the handle part (16) adjusts the length of coupling
frame (26) beforehand so that the user who sat on the chair (12) may lengthen both arms up and
may be allotted to the position arriving (BANZAI), so that float (10) may float on the water surface,
after coupling frame (26) has stretched. The height of a chair (12) is adjusted so that it may not
become the hindrance of breathing of a user. It is preferred to carry out height control so that the
position of a user's heart may come out above the water surface.

[0095]A user lengthens the back straightly, sits on a chair (12), lengthens both arms, and grasps
both ends of a handle part (16). Then, a handle part (16) is pulled down to a hit of a breast (front
pulldown). Or a handle part (16) is pulled down even after a head through regio occipitalis capitis
(back pulldown).

[0099] As shown in drawing 21 , the change of design of the above-mentioned training apparatus (T)
can be carried out. That is, a pulley storage part (13a) is established in a front end part of a device
main frame (13) which makes the shape of an L character. The 1st pulley (22) is attached to a
both sides part in an inside of a pulley storage part (13a), respectively. The 2nd pulley (not shown)
per right and left is attached to an inside of a flection of a device main frame (13).
[0100]The guide pipe (13c) is prolonged, respectively from each of both sides in the upper bed part
of the backboard (13b) of a device main frame (13). After each guide pipe (13c) is prolonged
toward a straight top from a backboard (13b), it curves halfway, direction is changed into the front
and cross direction center side, two guide pipes (13c) are connected right above [ of the position
where a user stands / abbreviated ], and the opening (13d) of it is placed upside down in the part
concerned.

[01 01] A mark (16) is a handle part which the user who stands on a device main frame (13) can
grasp by hand. The coupling frame (26) of two forms of a rope is attached to the longitudinal
direction center section of this handle part (16).

[0102]From the aforementioned opening (13d), one coupling frame (26) passes along the inside of a
backboard (13b), after passing along one inside of the two guide pipes (13c), After being hung on
the 2nd pulley formed in the inside of the flection in a device main frame (13), it progressed
towards the pulley storage-part (13a) side, was hung on the 1st pulley (22), and has come out
outside from the device main frame (13) via the insertion port (35) after that. And spherical float
(10) is attached in the free end section.

[0103]The coupling frame (26) of another side is the same, and after it passes along the inside of a
backboard (13b) after passing along the inside of the guide pipe (13c) of another side, and being
hung on the 2nd pulley from the aforementioned opening (13d), it was hung on the 1st pulley (22)
and has come out outside from the device main frame after that. And spherical float (10) is
attached in the free end section.

[0104]The training apparatus (T) which is an working example besides the working example 6 (a leg
press, sprint kickback ) is explained based on drawing 14 .

[0105]In a figure, a mark (13) is a device main frame which makes triangular frame shape, and a
mark (12) is a chair for users which it comes to connect with a device main frame (13) in one (joint
structure is un-illustrating).

[0107]One is a supporting spindle for auxiliary float (46). this supporting spindle (46) — before **
from said principal axis (44) — it extends toward the bottom of slant a little, and auxiliary float (1 1)
is attached at that tip.

[0108]Other one is a supporting spindle for main floats (48). This supporting spindle (48) is
prolonged toward back through the side of a chair (12) from said principal axis (44), and the main
float (10) is attached at that tip.
[0109][0109, one of the ** is Sasae for pedals.

it is 8) — after ** from a principal axis (44) — a little — the bottom of slant — ** — and .
The pedal part (16) is provided at the tip of this supporting spindle (18).

[01 10]The three above-mentioned components (46), i.e., the supporting spindle for auxiliary float,
the supporting spindle for main floats (48), and the supporting spindle for pedals (18) rotate the
direction and the degree of isogonism with rotation of for [ of a principal axis (44) ] Masakata, or
an opposite direction.

[01 1 1]The equipment (T) of the above-mentioned composition is installed in a pool bottom floor
part (20). The height of this chair (12) is adjusted so that it may not become the hindrance of
breathing of a user. It is preferred to carry out height control so that the position of a user's heart
may come out above the water surface. If it is in the state where equipment (T) was installed in
the pool bottom floor part (20), the main float (10) is floating on the water surface, and a pedal
part (16) is allotted to the position which can be stepped on after the user who sat on said chair
(1 2) has bent the knee.

[01 12]A user sits on a chair (12), lengthening the back straightly, and where a knee is bent, he
steps on a pedal part (16).

[01 13]In this state, a leg is projected ahead and a pedal part (16) is extruded on foot (leg press).
Thereby, a principal axis (44) rotates and the supporting spindle for main floats (48) rotates in the
direction in connection with this. The main float (10) attached at the tip of a supporting spindle

http://www4apdl,inpit.go jp/cgi-bin/tran_web_cgi_ejje?atw_u=http%3A%2F%2Fw 1 1/07/1 1

(48) resists lift simultaneously, and it sinks underwater. Load will take for the leg (yes quadriceps,
the musculus psoas meuor, a sit-up, a soleus muscle, the Achilles sources, an ankle, the

muscles of others required for the pliability of a leg) etc. which extrude a pedal part (16) at this
time.

[01 14]By lengthening the projected leg to the front, it rises to surface according to lift, a principal
axis (44) rotates reversely simultaneously, a pedal part (16) moves to the user side, and float (10)
returns to the original position. Since the supporting spindle for auxiliary float (40) rotates, auxiliary
float (1 1) resists lift at this time and it sinks underwater. Even if it lengthens the projected leg to
the front, rapidly, it does not rise to surface, namely, a pedal part (16) does not return to the
original position quickly, and the main float (10) can avoid a risk of producing, when a pedal part
(16) moves toward a user rapidly.

[01 15]By forming auxiliary float (11), power applies in a series of a user's until it sinks a main
float's (10)'s thoroughly operations, and condition can be ac(justed. That is, when extruding a pedal
part (16) on foot, the lift by auxiliary float (1 1) consisting underwater the start of aggressiveness
can be borrowed. Therefore, a pedal part (16) can be extruded comparatively comfortably. From
the time of a pedal part (16) being extruded further and auxiliary float (1 1) coming out from the
water surface, the lift of auxiliary float (1 1) serves as zero, that is, serves as only load of a main
float (10), and requires bigger load for a leg.

[01 16]It is visually significant by forming auxiliary float (1 1) in a user's front. That is, as mentioned
above, since the main float (10) is allotted behind the user, a user cannot see the ups and downs
of what hears the wave sound by a main float (10) floating and sinking itself. However, since
auxiliary float (11) is arranged before the user instead of the main float (10), the pleasure of ups
and downs of this auxiliary float (11) and fun can be enjoyed fully.
[01 17]It trains by repeating aggressiveness length of such a pedal part (16).

[01 18]The training apparatus (T) of the above-mentioned composition can also be used as follows
(refer to drawing 15 ). That is, first, a user stands in the front position of a chair (12), using a front
[ main float / (10) ], and grasps the side part of a chair (12). A leaning posture is taken in this
state (being in a proneness state a little), a knee is bent, and a pedal part (16) is stepped on. Then,
a pedal part (16) is extruded by projecting a leg.

[01 19]A power transmission part in Claims consists of a principal axis (44), a supporting spindle for
main floats (48), and a supporting spindle for pedals (16) in the above-mentioned working example.
[0120]About a training apparatus (T) shown in the above-mentioned working example, and a
training apparatus (T) shown especially in the working examples other than an working example 2
(arm extension). Float (10) is floated on a pool, and it can also be constituted so that a user may
train, for example on the poolside (land).

[0121]If it is in an working example using one float (10), it may replace with this and you may
constitute from two or more float constructs. And according to a user's capability, the number can
be changed suitably and can also be used. Conversely, when float (10) is constituted by two or
more float constructs, this can also be set to one.

[0122]It can also be considered as one piece of equipment combining more than two or it of each
training apparatus explained in the above.

[0123]The following explanation is added about a case where a user goes underwater and it trains.
That is, when training above the floor level (land) is compared with underwater training and load of
the same weight is received, a burden to a part and the waist to which lift requires an underwater
direction for a user's body is eased.

[0124] Below the reference example 1 (Quick Rheydt and kick ) explains a reference example based
on drawing 22 and drawing 23 .

[0125]As shown in a figure, water is prescribed depth ON ************ to a pool. This pool
spreads out, when a part of internal surface of this pool bulges in the shape of a flat-surface circle
towards the method of outside.

[0126]it extends in a diametral direction at said pool bulged part (50) carried out — it is caught
and the stick (52) is constructed [ above the water surface ]. As for two rows of upper and lower
sides, inside the wall surface (50a) in a pool bulged part (50), the crevice for light storage (54) is
provided for every hoop direction predetermined interval. One light (56) is stored by one crevice
for light storage (54), and the light (56) of these plurality is programmed to switch on the light to
every one and random with the lighting signal from the outside.

[0127]It is blockaded by the touch sensor component (58) and the front side opening of the
crevice for light storage (54) can recognize blink of said light (56) now from the outside via this
touch sensor component (58). And if the touch sensor component (58) which the light (56) turned

on is touched, a light (56) goes out and it has become the structure which the following light (56)
turns on.

[0128]He stands a user being caught and making it a fi^ont [ bulged part / pool / a stick (52) and /
(50) ], is caught and grasps a stick (52) with both hands. A leg (lower half of the body) is floated
using lift, a leg is projected, and a tiptoe is applied to a wall.

[01 29]Lighting of a light (56) is started in this state. That is, the machine side makes one random,
arbitrarily selected light (56) turn on. If the turned-on light (56) is found, a user will touch the
touch sensor component (58) in the position on the tiptoes of a leg, and will erase the turned-on
light (56). It competes for the ability to be erased [ how many lights (56) ] in predetermined time.
[01 30] Although reference example 2 (water Tarzan ) graphic display is omitted, **** constructed
over a pool so that water may stand in a row to a prescribed depth ON ******** cage and this
pool and this bar may arrange the bar of a predetermined number in parallel in one way is provided.

[0131]A user moves to one end besides **, first changing one bar after another which hangs, falls
in the bar by the side of an end, and hangs and falls in it.

[0132]Below the reference example 3 (hips flexor ) explains a reference example based on drawing
24-

[0133]As shown in a figure, water is prescribed depth ON ************ to a pool. A back pad (60)
which consists of buffers is provided in height (depth) equivalent to a user's lumbar part in an
internal surface of a pool which stands on a pool bottom floor part (20).
[0134]From a pool wall surface equivalent to both sides of a back pad (60), an arm pad (62)
projects, respectively and a handle bar (64) prolonged toward the upper part, respectively is
installed in a projecting end part (62a) of these arm pads (62).

[0135]a user stands on a pool bottom floor part (20), putting in the body between arm pads (62) on
either side, where a pool wall surface is used as the back, and reliance obtains a back pad (60) on
the waist — ** Simultaneously, both elbows are carried on an arm pad (62), and a handle bar (64)
is grasped with both hands.

[01 36]Alternately with right and left, a knee is bent, and a leg is raised and taken down to this
state. This operation is repeated. In order that lift may work to the body, load is reduced rather
than repeating the above-mentioned operation ashore (above the floor level), but resistance of
water becomes large, so that quick operation is carried out, and load also becomes large.
[0137]

[Effect of the Invention]Since the thick and heavy main part which does not need to use the
weight which consists of metal and supports this is not required, either, if it is in the training
apparatus of this invention, also when [ which the weight of the whole equipment can be reduced,
for example, assembles this ] making it move at the time, it can carry out easily.
[0138]There is fun of ups and downs of float which was described above, he enjoys himself to a
user, and ballottement is given. From a wave sound and a spray in case float bobs, the training
apparatus of this invention has an active and bright image, and a user's training volition rises.
